The second concept album released by Sepultura, following 2006's "Dante XXI", which was based on Dante Alighieri's "The Divine Comedy". And it's the first album featuring drummer Jean Dolabella, since the departure of Igor Cavalera in 2006.
"A-Lex" lyrics inspired by Anthony Burgess' book "A Clockwork Orange", which was the basis for the Stanley Kubrick film. And, the impressive thing is that Sepultura pull this off without sounding either geeky or pretentious. For all its intellect, this album doesn't sacrifice anything when it comes to intensity; this is a vicious, loud sledgehammer of an album, and the kids in the moshpit will have no problem connecting with Alternative Metal scorchers like "Filthy Rot", "The Treatment", "Paradox", and "Forceful Behavior" on a gut level.
There was a time when the idea of Sepultura recording without Max Cavalera (their former lead singer) seemed unthinkable; Cavalera played a vital role on pre-Green albums such as 1991's "Arise" and 1993's "Chaos A.D.". But, the incendiary Green turned out to be a fine replacement after Cavalera left Sepultura to form Soulfly in 1996, and he certainly helps bassist Paulo Jr., guitarist Andreas Kisser, and drummer Jean Dolabella get the job done nicely on "A-Lex". Personnel changes can have a very negative effect on a band, but Sepultura have maintained their vitality all these years -- and that vitality is alive and well on the superb "A-Lex".
"A-Lex" sold 5,000 copies in its first week of release in Brazil and 1,600 in its first week of release in the United States. It was considered by the Brazilian edition of Rolling Stone Magazine as one of the Top 25 Brazilian albums of 2012.
Release includes 24-page booklet.
